Once in a while a book comes along that really holds your attention. I can imagine times when I felt uneasy after I heard a creak in the night or the russle of leaves behind me when hiking. This book makes the hair stand up on the back of you neck, and to think, it was based on true stories. Great work Southerly.
UFOs: Physcial or more "metaphysical?"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Curt Sutherly's book is an excellent read. He places UFOs into their true context: Are we dealing with a phenomenon that is physical or "metaphysical" as he calls it. In his dandy forward he sets the tone of the book by noting, "....he dismissed the prevailing belief that UFOs are extraterrestrial spacecraft and began working under the assumption that something far more odd and complex is at work... What some of us failed to take into account was the potential for heightened emotional and psychological stress. For Raymond and a number of others....the stress arising from the unrelenting (and other undisciplined) study of UFOs was worsened by a belief that the phenomenon was more metaphysical than physical." UFOs, black panthers, Big Birds, Bigfoot, and aliens; Curt puts them all into the proper perspective. My own investigations in the Troup-Heard Corridor of westcentral Georgia and eastcentral Alabama have confirmed what Curt writes so well of. An informative page-turner. I recommend it to all.
